Glaceis Archon: The Ruler of Blizzard

Chapter 20: A Dueling Challenge

(POV MC)

'Hmm~ Quite soothing atmosphere.' I thought about it with a small smile growing on my face, as I began to stare at the city that was currently in front of me.

Now, I was sitting on one of the park benches in the city, more precisely the one near the exit, along with Lilith, who was at the entrance, the one where my Demon Maid was seen was standing with closed eyes, right behind me.

Looking at her at this moment, somehow the female Demon gave me the vibe of a top-tier servant, whom I forgot to see where. It's just, it really looks very similar, to the point that I think this Lilith is probably the female version of the person, which is from what I remember anyway, he should have been a man.

However, for now, let's just ignore it, because it's not so important to think about.

By the way, while I was relaxing here together with Lilith, I could also see that the construction of the tower that was then, was still being done energetically by the people, as well, tesla himself seemed to be busy with his own notebook, along with his assistant who was standing not far from him.

Besides that, there was also Toshizou who seemed to still focus on training the people who were in this city, and from that time on, I still had not spoken to him, because every time I approached him, I had not spoken to him, that woman was always trying to get away from me, where to the extreme, she was always pointing her Katana around my neck, which always made me decide not to go any further.

So, for the sake of not adding to my dislike, remembering that it would be very problematic, because it would definitely affect my revenge plan, this one, therefore I decided to just ignore it for now, and maybe I will just finish my business with him, after he managed to calm down.

Even though I said that, but I was still skeptical about her, because somehow, the more she came here, the more upset she looked at me, every time she met me, and that's really a very bad sign.

After all, even though my plan does have a high chance of succeeding, but that doesn't mean it will be a hundred percent successful, which means there is still a possibility of failure.

And, looking at what I was talking about earlier, from seeing that alone, everything really seemed to be leaning towards failure, which really made me very nervous, because I was still hoping for my plan to work, just because I didn't want to make a new plan, the chances of it succeeding were not so reliable.

Ignoring that for the time being, while I was thinking about those things, I could also see that there were some large carriages that were seen entering this city, with the total number of train cars, where the front gate is the only car that has passengers in it.

Where, after I saw the carriages of the chariots, I could not hide my joy at all, for just by looking at the carriages alone, I could not hide it, I could immediately understand what was inside, plus who was the owner of the carriages.

So, it can be said, if it managed to treat the little pain that was in my mind, because it still could not improve my relationship with Toshizou.

However, after my eyes glanced at the knight escorting the carriages, my face immediately became very cold, which I managed to hide fortunately, behind the lazy expression on my face.

After all, the figure of the knight was truly very famous once, to the point that, just maybe, there was hardly anyone living in this Continent, who did not know who the knight was.

A man who managed to get the blessing of the God of Sun, and the blessing of the God of Holy, and loved by the Fire Spirits...

I don't really have a problem with this guy, considering I've never met him, except to hear it from people.

It's just that, for some reason, ever since he came to this city, a bad feeling that was not pleasant at all, maybe even very unpleasant, appeared suddenly inside me.

To make things worse, the feeling grew stronger, as this Paladin started to notice me, before he started to spur his horse to move towards me.

Of course, I who saw it could only stare at it in silence, with my facial expression still the same as before, and even looked much more lazy than usual, with the same expression on my face, when my eyes start to look at him, but not at the same time.

Ignoring that, after the distance between the two of us was not so far away, the Paladin immediately descended from his horse and walked towards me, of course with full arrogance.

When that happened, I could see that all the townspeople nearby immediately stopped what they were doing, and all of them were really looking at the two of us in turn, with great seriousness.

Not only that, even Lilith began to look at the Paladin with slightly narrowed eyes, as if she did not like her presence.

However, given what kind of race the woman belonged to, I was able to understand her, because those Paladins and Demons were always at odds, like the Hero and Demon Lord, never got along at all.

'I hope things won't go badly.'

However, as if to laugh at my wish, after this Paladin got in front of me, he then immediately said a sentence which, if it were to be likened to it, he said, I really don't want to listen to it at all.

Where, that sentence is this thing;

"Arch Nixice Aeternus! Me, Jake Punishead! Paladin of Shine, ask you to duel with me!"

Yup, just by hearing that sentence alone, my whole mood was immediately shattered into pieces, like having just been hit by two trains at once, which was ended by being hit by a nuclear...

Although I know, if it is too much to be used as a parable, but that is what I am currently feeling.

So then... 'What should I do now?'
